●● Talk to plants and receive a reply back, though plants often communicate very differently than sapient living creatures. More successes leads to a clearer answer.
●●● Grow a bark skin that provides a level of hard armor per success rolled. Stacks with worn armor but adds an extra dot of Dexterity penalty above what it normally has if worn with armor. Grow thorns to deter hand to hand attacks against you. Forgo food with photosynthesis. Whatever enhancements you can come up with that are plant based.
Range of this spell is touch.
●●●● Create walls of thorns, vines that pull apart stone and other extremely supernatural plant activity. Use the difficulty for Entangling to determine the base difficulty. More successes means more extreme results.
Range of this spell is line of sight.

Rebuking Plant Creatures
Characters can roll Charisma + Plant Power to rebuke plant creatures. This opposed by the target’s Willpower if the plant creature has Willpower.
Successes over Plant Creature
One Success: Plant creature loses remaining actions for this turn and next turn. Target cannot dodge or parry but is not treated as helpless.
Two Successes: As with one success. Subsequent rounds the plant creature has one-die penalty on all rolls as long as undead turner is within Charisma x 10 yards
Three Successes: As with one success. Subsequent rounds the plant creature has two-dice penalty on all rolls as long as undead turner is within Charisma x 10 yards
Four Successes: As with one success. Subsequent rounds the plant creature cowers and the spot taking no aggressive action even if attacks. They are treated as immobilized but still struggling. This lasts for the caster’s Charisma in minutes.
Five Successes or More: For every success over four, the character can issue the plant creature a simple command which transcends language barriers though it must be spoken out loud. The plant creature will never directly harm the cleric who rebuked it but they may try to violate the spirit of a command if intelligent. If unintelligent they will not try to undermine commands but may misinterpret commands that are too broad “kill them all” and attack everyone but the cleric, even the cleric’s allies.
After the caster has used up the commands he rolled, the plant creature will go back to cowering indefinitely as long as the cleric is within Charisma x 10 yards, unless the caster wants to issue one more command in which case the undead will follow that last command then the turn is broken.
